Shadows of Foxworth

De: V.C. Andrews

Narrado por: Emily Ellet

Forbidden passions have been the hallmark of the Dollanganger clan since Flowers in the Attic debuted more than forty years ago. In this third book of a new related trilogy, witness the birth of the Dollanganger curse as Corrine Foxworth’s children learn that family is but destiny by another, crueler name.

As a young girl in France, Marlena Hunter’s life was a fairy tale. She had a talented artist for a father, a doting mother, and a brother she couldn’t be closer to. She loved her family; she just didn’t know what her family actually was.

When a car crash kills their parents, Marlena and Yvon lose not only France, but also their identity. Sent to Richmond, Virginia, they arrive at the home of two aunts they’ve never met before, who tell them that their true last name is Dawson, that their father had fled the family years back—and that now the family is calling in the debt.

Trapped in a mansion with as many secrets as rooms, Marlena yearns for escape. But in America, you can either make friends or make profit, and Yvon suddenly seems much more interested in the latter. While he is free to leave the house, Marlena is left to avoid lecherous tutors and the secretary-to-wife track expected of a woman. Caught between mastering the game to escape it and falling prey to its allure, she needs to learn fast—for Malcolm Foxworth has cast his eye in her direction. And no family name can protect her from the twisted roots of the Dollanganger family tree.

great!

I love the reading... changing the voices made the story feel as though I was "watching a movie" this gave closure to the story, it seemed to answer the "why?" question that seemed to to follow every book.

What a story!

Ivan and Marlena grew up in France. After a horrible accident they moved to America with two of their aunts, one was ‘slow’, the other was mean. They were adapting as well as can be expected. This tells us their story.
The performance was quite good. Now on to the next book in the series.

Fantastic narration!!!

I’ve adored this series and this is by far the best narrator out of any audible book I’ve listened!

OUT OF THE SHADOWS OF Foxworth

The above reference title is what I feel it should have been named it seems that at least this branch of the family is trying to be right and get there lineage and legacy correct. I'm glad I've come back to listen to this series and here for the 1st time some of the books that I did not get to read It's making a lot of sense now and I think everyone who read this series back when they were teenagers or in junior high should come back and revisit this series.

Great book

Awesome book

I love it and the re reader was great and I have loved V.C Answers books since I was 11years old

Awesome story

I really thought it was going to be a boring book but far from, this last story really puts everything in perspective, I can understand everything.

Family

It was good for Malcom to know the truth.I was so happy.So this explains why John-Paul did not like him.

character backstory

story provides background of characters of later books that were previously written while weaving a few new twists in

Good read

Love the back stories to the original flowers in the attic. I have read the whole series now, including the secret brother if you have not read it, it is a must.
